Robert Parker's Wine Advocate : As for the 2005 Lynch-Bages, it is a sexy, surprisingly soft and accessible style of wine, with a deep ruby/purple color, loads of crème de cassis, cedar wood and forest floor notes, medium to full body, ripe tannin and a long, fleshy finish. Drink it over the next 15+ years. Drink 2015-2030.
Blend : 72 %Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot.
